What really shocks me is Volkswagen’s market cap is about 80B. They are basically the largest auto maker on the planet.

This is the kind of clickbait headline I approve of.

Are we absolutely sure that photo isn’t John Lithgow in a Rudy suit?

I think both can be true. He did ONE good thing.

To be fair, one full size pack of TP will fill a Fiestas trunk right up. It’s small. 

Massachusetts has followed suit. Other states are likely to fall in line. CA basically gets to dictate the rules because of their size, so 2034 will probably be the last year for gasoline-only vehicles.

I’m struggling to think of Xbox exclusives that haven’t since ended up on the PC.

I booted up my soft-modded original Xbox over the holidays just to see if it still worked. Played a bit of Spider-man 2. That game does not look as graphically impressive as it used to... but it’s still fun as heck.

So was the acquisition of Rare an F-U to Nintendo after they were laughed out of the room?

All vehicles have to be hybrid or full electric in the next 15 years. I’d rather see the Miata brand evolve than die completely.

Do not tease me with the idea of a new Mazda5. My system can’t take that kind of hope right now.

A Miata with a mild hybrid system and push-to-pass electric boost would probably do quite well. I’m hoping a similar system appears on the next BRZ.

But it’s not a real rotary unless it’s buried under a rat’s nest of vacuum hoses.

The font end looks too much like a late 80s Accord or 90s Cavelier. But I guess I now understand where those styling cues came from.

I don’t understand how these boxes on wheels are the peak of car design, but they still are.

We still know surprisingly little about the virus. There’s still zero approved and proven treatment for it. That we have multiple vaccines is honestly shocking. How it spreads is still an evolving science, and apart from “wearing a mask helps” we don’t know much else. It’s in the air, but probably only with…

Most of the Roxor is directly compatible with the original Willys. There’s a chance replacement panels for the grill and fenders will just bolt on (or they will with some effort).

That actually had me confused for a couple days after they got hired and started writing. I couldn’t figure out why so many articles were suddenly about Mercedes.
